Chapter 196: Everyone’s Changed Mind
[Mona’s P.O.V.]
When I finished what I wanted to say, a man’s voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
“Mona’s right!”
Although he was standing behind the crowd, I knew that it was Clyde based on my extraordinary eyesight.
“Alpha has already made his decision. He chose to bring her back, so we should all treat her properly!”
Just as I was feeling grateful towards him, another man’s voice came from behind me.
“These are the words that I have wanted to say for the past two days. It has already been a few months since the incident and Luna Rose left. We should all continue moving forward and not judge a person we don’t yet know based on the surface of the matter.” This time, it was Ad who spoke.
“Baby, I think you owe Mona an apology for what you said just now,” said he to Jane as he walked over to her.
“Gamma Ad, there’s no need for that,” said I.
“I’m sorry for my attitude and words towards you earlier, Mona. It’s just that… We had all been very close to the previous Luna. She was a really good person. So your arrival just triggered some dissatisfactory anger within. But I believe your words earlier reflect your true personality, which I’m starting to respect.”
“Gamma Jane, I understand where you’re coming from,” said I.
“What happened here?” asked Edward as my Popeye walked in from the dining hall’s main door. Behind him were Uncle Leon and Patrick. Everyone present bowed to him in respect.
“It’s nothing, Alpha. I was just inviting our guests to have a taste of the dessert I made.”
Edward looked at me doubtfully but he chose not to say anything. Since all the ranked members were present, everyone took their respectful seats at their tables and the courses were quickly served. During the meal break, Edward took me around to the tables to introduce me to everyone formally. This reminded me of my Luna ceremony. But this time, I was going around as Mona.
[Emily’s P.O.V.]
I couldn’t believe it. For the sake of that new b*tch, Alpha went through such trouble to gather the ranked members and representatives of the significant families of the pack to this dinner party. She didn’t deserve such a dinner party at all, a dinner party that I wasn’t even invited to.
What made me the angriest was that my fake best friend Naomi came to my house after the dinner party, sitting on the sofa across from me while she recounted the dinner earlier with much vivacity.
“Oh, you should have been there, Emily. You would have been so impressed by the way she handled the situation and turned things around in her favor. Everyone was so impressed by her aura and attitude. No wonder Alpha wanted to bring her back to the pack.”
There was even a hint of admiration in Naomi’s tone and eyes for that b*tch, the b*tch who had beautifully fought back against Gamma Jane. She must think that she was a very wise and brave she-wolf.
“What? Alpha was the one who wanted to bring her back? That b*tch boasted about that?”
“Emily, I don’t think you’ll get Alpha in the end. Although you’ve been telling us that you’ll be the new Luna, most people are starting to side with Mona.”
“Is this the only reason you decided to stop by? If it is, please get out and leave.”
“You delusional b*tch.” Those were Naomi’s last words before she left.
But her words did not affect me as much as thoughts of that sl*t Mona that started to flood my mind. She was so hypocritical just like that stupid blonde Rose. No matter how others treated her, she was always so quick to act friendly and respectful, playing the role of a good sanctimonious child.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I didn’t trust that single mother she-wolf. Her innocent look had everyone blinded and fooled, including Edward. I was the only one left awake and alert.
I put on my coat and went out the door. The freezing wind messed up my hair, but I kept moving fast. I had to give the mother werewolf some warning. No matter how much she had convinced the others to be on her side at the dinner party, she couldn’t ignore my presence.
Even though Alpha and Rose were meant to be together with a bond as strong as theirs, I was a winner in this relationship. So, this little mistress was nothing to me.
F*ck the peace. If she was the one that was keeping me from becoming Luna, I would not hesitate to take her out.
